EDIT:
re: Ozibattler - Below is some partypooper stuff about preflop in white:

<font color="white">Raise preflop to isolate loose limper in EP and to gain initiative and maybe even some fold equity although this is not so likely as your villain was willing to openlimp(!) in EP.</font>
[/partypooper]

Like you said, you should bet the flop in position. You might be ahead, in equity and currently. You are in position so you might get a free card vs. these passive(?) villains.

The pot is small so slowplaying wouldn't be terrible in that sense as you also have "blockers" for the straight draws -&gt; villains probably overestimate their outs.

With 3 villains in all and the FD there I still think I raise this.

I wouldn't hate a call to lure some suckers with bottom pairs or something in this small pot.

Then again you could get great action from two pairs and FDs and SDs so raise.

EDIT: the success of slowplaying is indeed smaller because of the small pot size. They are not so likely to call. So, foot on the gas and hope Villain has a good hand.
